Vit b6 delaying af?!!!!

Has anyone even had a delayed af due to taking vitamin b6,
I'm now on cd29, usually 27 day cycle with spotting starting from cd26 every month regardless of when ovulation occurs.
Last month the spotting started cd27 am! Then into full flow!
Now cd29 as I said and no spotting or af as of yet, I took a test sat eve which would have made me a minimum of 10dpo and it was bfn!
Rambling on but like I said I'm now in the toilet every half hour as feel heavy down there like she's about to show!
So my question as anyone taken b vitamins and then there period arrive late?

Yes that happened to me when taking pregnacare and again with b6 on its own. It was so cruel. Literally my first cycle TTC (trying to conceive) on pregnacare, cycles regular as clockwork and I was late,...,I so thought I was super lucky.

I don't know if was linked, but the only month I tried taking pregnacare while trying my period didn't show up at all. Normally 31-35 day cycles, I had one random 60 day one!! I stopped taking it until I got a positive test xx

I had a horrible cycle a while back whilst not trying, on b6 (for headaches) It wasn't longer but half my cycle I had lots of pregnancy-type symptoms... really sore heavy boobs, feeling sick, dizzy and tired. Stopped the b6 and went back to normal xx

I took it to try and help
With the spotting which I haven't had but not now 3 days late and I'm scared to test because of the negative Saturday night! Don't want to get my hopes up if it's a common thing that it makes cycles longer. Thanks

Hi, as mentioned b6 can extend your lp which isn't actually a bad thing especially for those with shorter lp's. I know it may seem a pain having a longer cycle but if it does help with the spotting you will have to decide what you would rather, a shorter cycle with spotting or a slightly longer one without? Fingers crossed you get your bfp soon x
